Posted on by Community member 2
Hi,

I have a form that contains header and lines in toolbar and list pattern. In header I have a field /Reason for modification/. The requirement is to make this field mandatory when any modifications are made on header or line level.

can someone point me to right direction.

    Microsoft Forms doesn’t natively support dynamic conditional logic to Ragdoll Hit make a field mandatory based on another field’s modification. However, you can use workarounds or integrate with Power Automate for advanced logic.

    If your intention is that a reason must be provided when you change a line, your design is wrong. That a field in a header is made mandatory is irrelevant when you're saving a line (= a different table). You'll need to design it in a different way.
     
    If a line record can't be saved without the reason, you should show a dialog before saving the line, e.g. in validateWrite() of the line data source.
     
    Also, consider whether a mere field is sufficient, because it can hold only one reason, for the latest change. Reasons of the previous change would be overwritten every time.

    Hi,
     
    you must use this code based condition :
    if(...)
{
   {{YourTable}}_ds.object(fieldNum({{YourTable}}, {{YourField}})).mandatory(true);
}
else
{
   {{YourTable}}_ds.object(fieldNum({{YourTable}}, {{YourField}})).mandatory(false);
}
